Artists work to support
Habitat for Humanity
Many local artists are cre-
ating something new out of
something old to help support
Sisters Habitat for Humanity
during its first UpCycle
Design Challenge fundraiser.
The event takes place
Saturday, August 13, from 5
to 8 p.m. at the ReStore, 254
W. Adams Ave. The volunteer
designers will donate their
items that have been made
from using pieces found
at both the Sisters Habitat
Thrift Store and ReStore.
The creations will then be
auctioned off, and all pro-
ceeds will go toward help-
ing families through Sisters
Habitat.
“We live in a very special
place. What a joy it is to see
this small community rally
around one another in an
effort to make dreams come
true,” said Mandy Haugen,
event organizer.
Many designers have been
creating items since spring,
and the creations will be dis-
played and judged during the
event. Those attending the
event will have the chance
to bid on the items during
the silent auction. Some of
the categories are “Stylish
Storage,” featuring pieces
that can be used as functional
storage; “Ugly Duckling,”
pieces that started out ugly
and were flipped into some-
thing beautiful; “Outside
In,” outdoor items that are
turned into something for
use in the indoors; and many
more.
Kids 12 and under will
have the chance to enter their
work into the “Put A Bird On
It” category. They can enter
a bird-feeder, bird house, or
bird-bath using items found
at the ReStore or Thrift Store.
These items will also be for
sale.
Besides the auction,
people will have the chance
to purchase food and beer.
Local brewery Three Creeks
Brewing will supply the beer,
and Matthew Poyner will
cater the event.
Sisters Habitat for
Humanity builds and sells
affordable, energy-efficient
houses to low-income fami-
lies. Future Habitat hom-
eowners work alongside
volunteers to construct their
homes.
Since 1991, Sisters
Habitat has provided hom-
eownership opportunities to
60 families. The organiza-
tion has also completed four
repairs through its new home
repair program.
In 1993, the Thrift Store
was opened to help raise
funds for the building pro-
gram, and in 2007 the
ReStore was added as a place
to sell and purchase donated
furniture, appliances and con-
struction materials.
Designers can still enter
an upcycle piece for the fund-
raiser and are asked to con-
tact Mandy Haugen and Dena
Dunn at H4hrestoredesign@
gmail.com. The event can
be followed on Facebook as
well at H4h Upcycle Design
Challenge.
